On mun's reaction to seeing Star Trek Beyond [possible spoilers]

[nuclear_wessel]

I am glad that you enjoyed the movie but I do not like Scotch. You know this. It was made by a little old lady in Leningrad. Why would I want to drink it? Scotty can have his little old lady drink.

[Someone's a little protective over his drink.]

He thinks it's a drink for a man? You know vodka is a drink for a real man.[He scoffed.]

going to see beyond tomorrow :)

I certainly hope you are off duty, Ensign.

Re: have fun!

[nuclear_wessel]

Aye, sir. I am off duty of course.

[He wouldn't be drinking if he wasn't.]

[captainpike]

[a nod] As you were then.

[What was this Ensign's name again? Chankov....Chirpoff...?] If I may ask, how is vodka superior to scotch exactly? [Pike might be opening a can of worms with that question.]

[nuclear_wessel]

[Most can't say his name properly so you're not the first one.]

Because it is made in Russia. [Obviously.]

[captainpike]

[Walked into that one, he did.]

Technically it's made by the food synthesizers.

[nuclear_wessel]

Not the real vodka, sir. It is made in Russia in distilleries. The best is found in Moscow and Leningrad. [So there.]

The ship's vodka is good but does not compare to the real thing.

[captainpike]

True, I'll grant you the synthehols do tend to lose something compared to the real thing.

[Usually the captain was a martini drinker, him and Dr. Boyce.]

Still, better than the dehydrated food space explorers had to put up with.
